Nurt Thurs – Writing

Morning pages

“And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.”

Sylvia Plath

I hope you are doing OK!

Finally, I’m settling down into a routine of staying home. It isn’t the same thing as a staycation, where we are at home to relax, forget about work and enjoy time with the family.

Stay home now, means taking care of the home, the kids and still keep up with the office work. Everybody expects a lot from you.

How can I set up priorities? Should I get ready the lunch for the kids or should I work on a project deadline? 

Little by little, step by step, I’m adapting to the new, creating a routine, and most importantly saving time for my me time, where I can spend few minutes journaling, blogging and enjoying my garden now that the weather is getting warm. 

Stay safe!

Nurt Thurs – Popcorn

popcorn for lunch

“One cannot think well, love well and sleep well

if one has not dined well.”

Virginia Woolf

These days my mind is revolving around food. Breakfast, lunch, snack and supper! What do I cook for 4 people everyday? I’m running out of ideas, seems everybody gets hungry being at home. I, myself, have been craving cake, popcorn, candies, chocolates…

My cravings are showing up on my morning pages as well.

Only this week I’ve baked bananas cupcakes, a marble cake, and more chocolate cupcakes. Lots of popcorns during the afternoons too!

I’ll make a bread pudim soon, if I can have some bread leftover today.

How are you doing during this lockout?

Nurt Thurs – A pop of colour

“Let me, O let me bathe my soul in colours;

let me swallow the sunset

and drink the rainbow.”

Khalil Gibran

For many days the sun hasn’t shown up, it’s grey in the mornings when I leave for work and dark when I come back. The days are getting longer, but the grey is sticking around here. I bought yellow flowers in the weekend, they are so pretty and make my kitchen warm and colourful.

I haven’t joining Nurturing Thursday for so long. I miss it, and I think it’s time to start to post more, to have and to give more inspiration.

Noticing # 69

I’ve just noticed that my last ‘noticing’ post was in May! Oh my goodness! How the time flies and I let go of things that give me pleasure so easily!

First of all: Happy new season to you!

In my part of the world, we are entering Autumn. It’s so pretty out there! I had a long walk in the woods this weekend, noticing how slowly the changes are happing, how the earth is getting ready for the winter. 

I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.
